He does have a point though. Feature enhancements take time. None of us have enough time. Derek wrote the business bits for his own use. They work pretty well for what he wanted. They work reasonably well for the rest of us. We'd all love it if someone could sit down and spend the 6 months needed to: 1. Find out what people actually need from the business functions 2. Delve into the code and find out what it actually does 3. Write the enhancements determined by 1. 4. Stand back and bask in the glory and plaudits Derek has said he hasn't the time at the moment to devote to this. He invites people to submit patches (actually, this is Derek's pretty standard (and quite reasonable) reply to feature requests). We're all used to this. Hang around on the list a bit, don't get put off. Derek's quite cuddly really.
